even sans dying industries I can’t understand how any state can look at the abject success of Colorado and think “no, more money is not a thing we need”

I thought this was a CAPITALIST country and yet this naked greed cannot turn the wheels of government to allow for MORE MONEY?! this county confuses me often.

weed is keeping me as level as I can be.

seriously wish I was weaning off my maintenance medication.

i'd kind of like to be physically independent of anything that requires institutional support, as I'm not sure how long it's gonna exist.

I really want it, and God taking some meds in the morning is easier than it will be to practice abstinence and lean on my support network when I'm tempted to gently caress around with opioids. Like I know that life gets harder, but I really just... don't know if it's gonna last. poo poo seems to be unwinding and this lingering dependency on maintenance meds is a loving liability in that world.

If I can do it at all, I can do it on my own. Maybe I'll start reducing my intake along some kind of taper guideline?

Anyway I'm glad I live in a legal state, because atomizing weed goo from a vibrating pen and dabs can flatline my brain in the way I'm gonna need to get through it~

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

Much like in Canada, legalization will happen once the correct people are in position to profit from it.

the name comes from one-eighth of an ounce or 3.5 grams. likewise a quarter is 7, a half 14, and a whole ounce (or “zip” as often they were sold in ziploc bags) is 28.

weirdly after that level you move back to imperial with QP being “quarter pound” which just reminds you that stoners are, well, stoned.

That's one ounce of weed, about fills up a sandwitch baggie, lasts me 3-4 weeks depending on how heavily I am smoking.

i love how we treat the metric system here in america

we sell weed by the ounce and cocaine by the gram. we sell beer by the pint and hard liquor by the milliliter. you can buy a 12-oz soda, or if that's not enough you can get a 2-liter. a football field's 100 yards long but a firing range is 100 meters

it's fun

growing any plant is a fun experience and very hard to truly gently caress up. (“it’s called weed for a reason” YEAH THANKS UNCLE DAVE.) but it is especially therapeutic when you know that the plant you’re growing is gonna make your next pizza taste a billion times better or will make it so you can sleep peacefully through the night or will give you that relaxed feeling you need without the amnesia of Xanax or the anxiety of slightly too much weed.

pick your plants, add water and dirt, enjoy. I mean obviously you can go way harder and deeper than that and if you actually have questions ask I’m ready to dispense all of my half baked know-how but it’s really, really easy to grow plants. your ancestors did it for many years. some say all of the years to this day.

Although having not been a weed smoker since 2003 I felt like I was trying to put a pc together after being out of the loop for a decade. Like what is this ratio poo poo, and why does my weed have multi-core processors and how do I update my vape pen's firmware?

I refuse to believe in the existence of the $40 ounce, where the gently caress are you getting your weed, a really good price for me is like $150/oz and I thought I was clever using the internet instead of paying street prices

probably Oregon and actually looking for deals

there''s a dispensary near me that's super-bougie with an interior that looks like a spa that doesn't do the same deep discounts other places do (i.e. it has far from the best prices) and they still have over a half-dozen decent options for $100/oz as a regular price

e: here's a well-regarded place with a host of options at a $60/oz regular price (which can trivially be brought down to $54/oz with one of the many standing 10% discount offers)
